I'm not going to stop PA. I have a good QB. Sorry.
I've already "caught" mine last season. So you all get mad if you want I told you I was going to play in Season 4 and stop being so damn nice after I got cheesed in the PLAYOFFS and wasn't shit done about it.

That's fine.
It's Madden Nation to some people in this league. Why give a shit?
Never cared if I lost, nor do I throw/break things that happen. But when I am playing in a league that's suppose to be "sim" and a dude goes 4-wide like Ando and acts like its nothing, its hilarious.
re: PA
Dude, I don't care if you use PA. I ask the timing, and why even play like you did with the score it was? The lowly Browns your fodder? Did I piss you off previously to act like such a dick?

If I'm still up and around posting on the forum yea I guess we can play. I might pass out though before you get off of work, I'm on 4 hours of sleep :lol Tomorrow night would still be better for me cause I will have had sleep.
Only thing keeping me up right now is the Rockets game I'm watching.

i'll look at the boxscore and when the scores happened. if it truly was running up the score (i.e. he could've downed the ball or just ran out the clock but instead kept passing) then he'll have to bench his starting QB or starting RB for the next game.
if it was just him passing with 4 wide in the 2nd half with a large lead i don't know that i would consider that to be "running up the score".
smokey cut me some slack bro. yeah, LJ fake punted in the playoff game. a game where he beat you by multiple scores. i already talked to him about it and i honestly doubt we're going to see anything more in that regards coming from him.
there's no point to prove here. you running up the score, running PA passes out of shotgun or whatever on 3rd and long, playing 4 wide up by 5 scores, what is the point? "CAUSE THATS HOW IM GONNA PLAY!" come on dude, don't act like a douchebag about it. your beef is with LJ, not with other people in the league (well, LJ and rors!).
league morale goes along way in these leagues. they only last this long because people are having fun and enjoying themselves. it's not all about winning. i have lost my first 2 games and honestly both games were very exciting and i had a great time playing (minus the bluemax comments early in the game :lol ). so WHY are you purposely trying to ruin someones enjoyment? you want this to be a 12 man league where the other 11 guys in the league are going to kick the shit out of you when you play them?
this isn't a dick measuring contest. no need to run up the score on people or show your passing prowess in a blowout. just chill out and save all of your tricks or anger for when you play LJ (not that i'm condoning this little cat fight, but there is no need to get all pissy at everyone else over something they had nothing to do with).

...........why do I have no passing/receiving/rushing stats?
WTF! They show up on the website for each game, but just now, checking my season stats in-game (and the leaders) I noticed that I only have defensive stats. If I've lost two games worth of stats, that messes everything up and basically means that the fun that I get from trying to lead the league in any given category is gone now.
I hope others aren't having this ridiculous glitch.

4 & 5-wide late in the third, score was 35-0.
Some more 4 wide later in the 4th, and to add on more continues passing and 3 wide when killing the clock would suffice. I gave up caring/trying after the first half when I knew he didn't give a shit and rather play like a dick from Madden Nation, up in your face acting like he won a medal. Bravo, you own an elite team.

I don't have a beef with LJ? We talked about it for awhile after it happened. So I have no issue with him. But there was plenty of LOLing around here about it and nothing really done about it admin wise, so I take the stance that I'm going to play harder this season and that's it.
But look at the boxscore and when you decide lemme know. It is what it is, but nobody seemed to give a shit when I was pissed off about my incident in the Bills game but now OMG OMG SMOKEY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE.

Smokey you ran the score up on me our first game, I bitched, we talked about it and were cool. None of the commishes truly gave you shit that you did it to me at the time.
Rules later got changed so it wouldn't happen again with anyone and you promised you wouldn't do it again.

Smokey said:
dude, he called a FAKE PUNT. it's not some unstoppable cheesy play, but if it's a 4th and 2 or less, and you call a max cover punt (2 gunners on the outside), it's probably going to be picked up.
in my opinion there is a difference in calling a fake punt on a 4th and short, and purposely running up the score or playing like an asshole in a blowout just to prove a point because you feel like you were slighted on a fake punt call last season.
you know i might even understand if you did this against LJ (again wouldn't condone it), but why against everyone else? because they were laughing at the situation when he basically blew you out anyways? i get that you could have seen it as a turning point in the game but come on they are two completely different situations.
you also say nothing was done, well what would you have done even if i had the admin ability? overturn the game? give you the win? have LJ's next opponent play the bills as CPU?

is zep around? did someone fill in for the rams in the first 2 games? i don't really want any fill-ins unless it's a non-league member or someone is out of town for a week or something and has someone fill in.
i don't know if zeps power is still out or if anyone has talked to him. i want to find out so i can have bluemax play the CPU or whatever we need to do

Well, I lost to the Steelers. Lonestar beat them by 25 Peterboy beat them by 14..but I lost to them by 1 point. I will be the only person to lose to a computer team this season (possibly others will come close, but I bet they'll quit out and replay the game). That after nearly giving PB his first loss in week 1. I am basically a bottom rung Madden player right now.
Some ridiculous plays..none moreso than a repeat of the HORRIBLE tackling job I had against Wellie. My team gets eaten up by power rushing two games in a row. It'd be one thing if Darren Sharper (no power or speed but supposedly a genius) didn't have TWO dropped INTs, where he was wide open and the ball was softly thrown to his area.. and my CBs didn't make dumbass plays all game long
http://www.easports.com/media/play/video/18019392
Mendenhall's always had my number, but this is just silly. It seems like the game is becoming a parody of itself the more I play it. He breaks a tackle from Ed Reed...then a TRIPLE tackle, involving two DL guys. That play happening twice in a year is frustrating, but in back to back weeks (both close losses) has me turning a bit Bluemax.
The AFC North is in shambles.

Well I figured you wouldn't do it to anyone else, maybe someone like CB or someone you have a history with, but Striker is a cool guy who plays with a shit team.
Fifty, I won't quit and replay the game if I'm losing to the Titans. I'll take my loss and admit I stink.

Yea it's an absurd rule that some of us have to play the cpu twice cause the team doesn't have an owner... why change the rule in season 4? I'm almost tempted to vanish those weeks and let someone else play my game. I have no desire to play the cpu in a league setting and it has nothing to do with if I lose or not to the ai. If I wanted to play the cpu I could go do it right now, which I wouldn't cause it's boring as fuck and not fun.
Someone with a lot of time or who loves the game too much could just be the auto fill in for the Steelers and Titans.

GG DCX.
I'm a little weirded out by how well the 1-5-5 worked against the run. Take away my long runs by each RB (53, 22,18) and I have a 4.6 YPC average. Everyone knows by now that I play a power offense with running out of heavy formations, and that enables me to push around smaller teams. A D consisting of a DT and LBs should have gotten swallowed up and rolled all game, but it didn't until the end when I started ripping off good runs. Contrary to what I thought, the passing game forced him to loosen up the D.
DCX had 2 turnovers to my 1, and that proved to be the game as a TD was scored off of each TO. I managed to control Tank, but only after intense scheming. I still have a huge weakness in my D and it reared it's ugly head again.
I'm very happy with my passing game so far. It was extremely challenging to go against the 1-5-5 on passing downs. Only down side is I've thrown a pick in each game. DCX brought a lot of heat, I don't mind taking sacks as long as I don't turn the ball over anymore. On another note I was able to create some matchups which I think went unnoticed by DCX or maybe he noticed and he thought he could get away with. DCX I will discuss with you when I get back so you can fix it.
Also, look at this play:

Nicks behind the defense and MY CONTROLLER DIES. ;_;
Anyway, have a good weekend dudes.

Yea well playing the cpu is still not a cool option. But for the Zep games, he's missed the first two and I think Livewire has led them to 2-0. How is that fair?
Out of luck CB, he ignored my PM on PS3 and he's playing with Lighting!
